ProfessionalProduct description
This antique café motto painting depicts a lively tavern scene, accompanied by the humorous German proverb "Die Rose blüht, die Dorne sticht. Wer gleich bezahlt, vergisst es nicht." Roughly translated, it means: "The rose blooms, the thorn pricks. He who pays immediately will not forget."
The painting was produced by Mollat Paris, a well-known Parisian publisher of decorative prints and café art from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The warm colors, expressive figures, and humorous message made pieces like this popular decorations in cafés, taverns, and restaurants throughout Europe.
The work shows visible signs of age, including wear on the edges, craquelé, and superficial imperfections that contribute to its authentic character. Features
